I was helping a friend move yesterday and one of the little fitness things she had was an 8lb medicine ball.

Some of us were tossing it around, and when it was thrown to me I caught it one handed. That got a bunch of "beast" statements, but I wonder - is that really a "beast" type of thing? I'd think that just about anyone could do that.

In any event, it was interesting to throw that around. I think that catch with that would really give the arms a workout.

hello all! i use the 8 pound medicine ball to add a little umph to my crunches
